Visiting Cleveland during an unprecedented heat wave and since the West Side market lacks good A/C,…read morea friend recommended these guys. They also have really nice A/C!! :) Small shop, but with an amazing selection of steaks, sausages, cheeses, pork and etc. They also had some fresh vegetables, dry goods such as ketchup, beer, spices and breads. Service at the butcher shop was awesome, I was looking for a few large fillets, the gentlemen chopped them up and air sealed them for the ride home. They tasted amazing! So, when visiting the West Side market, you might want to start here first or at least pass thru on the way out. I think you will be impressed by what they have!!

The butcher was a wonderful older gentleman who let me taste their most delectable ciccioli which is like a pork terrine with apricots in it. Melt in your mouth good! They also have various other jerky, pork pastrami (super fatty and thick and wonderful), etc. I also got some living arugula and they had a nice selection of produce and root vegetables. This place isn't huge or crammed with products but you will feel good spending your money here and get high quality products in return.

State Meats is still serving up some of the best kielbasa and smokies I've ever had. On my most…read morerecent visit, I purchased some cabbage and noodles, which are second to none in flavor. I also purchased some sauerkraut, wich again, is second to none. I purchased some borsht, but I'm not a fan of that soup. I also bought some chenahy and it was delicious. It reminded me of chili. If you like chili, you'll like chenahy. I also purchased some crepes. They were large and had a lot of filling in them. They were pretty good, but I wasn't a huge fan of them. They were filling.

I'm hoping it lasts more than a few days...it is truly a must try. Tender but chewy, Sweet but peppery. Not spicy at all so don't let the name fool you.

I went to the West Side Market on a Saturday morning. Yea, I know. I don't really know what I was…read morethinking either. It was a chaotic, glorious mess of old and young Clevelanders bustling around grabbing local goodies. You couldn't walk 2 steps without accidentally tripping on a stroller. Let's just say it wasn't the environment for the easiest shopping trip. I guess what I'm trying to say is that on days like that, you aren't expecting the best customer service from a swamped merchant at the market. But in a lucky twist of fate, Fosters Meats came through with the perfect amount of helpfulness, knowledge and patience. Hallelujah! Jason, Kelton and I stopped by the WSM for a roast and some fresh bread. We didn't think it would take long so we scooped up the first 15 minute parking spot we could find. The first steps we took inside I was thinking we might want to move the car--with this crowd we were going no where fast! We didn't move the car, but we did start to make our way through the crowd until we spotted the first meat counter, Fosters. We were immediately noticed and asked if we needed help! Wow. So, Jason quickly explained what we were looking to cook and how many we were serving hoping to get some guidance on what to purchase. The Foster's employee cut us the perfect portion of beef at the right price and it turned out delicious! He even worked with the credit card minimum to make sure we were happy campers and got us out in time to move our car! Polite, quick, efficient, helpful and actually smiling! Yes, I as surprised too! I mean, if I were working on a busy Saturday at the West Side Market, I'd be one crabby broad. I could learn a lesson or two from the Fosters folks, that's for sure.

Wonderful butchers…read more Notice that I didn't say "meat market." Sure, this place sells meat, but they also know how to cut meat per my order -- which we made from Texas weeks prior to Christmas. They also tied it very nicely, and the vacuum pack is clutch. The big order was a bone-in rib roast (six pounds), which will be our Christmas dinner. It's a beautiful roast ... probably Select Grade, since it was about $120. But there is plenty of fat in the cap. If this beauty doesn't taste worth a damn, it's on me. Notice that I rubbed it with dry rosemary, course black pepper, Kosher salt and lemon zest. It will sit in the fridge overnight and roast low and slow on Christmas Day. We also picked up bacon, breakfast sausage and Dearborn hot dogs (I'm a hot dog junkie). All of it was fresh and tasty, The service here is spot-on. Not only do they answer questions, but they also give you exactly what you order ... along with some advice. That's old-school, and it's too bad that there aren't more places like this anymore. I live in the Houston area, and we have markets such as this. But they are few and far between.

It truly feels like being back in New York. Everyone there is so pleasant, very helpful and knowledgeable. The store is clean and well maintained.

They are very easy to cook and taste delicious. It's a small store but don't expect to just run in and out. You will find things you didn't see the last time you were there.
